INVESTIGATING STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF CANAL DENSITY & CANAL NETWORK ANALYSIS OF HISAR DISTRICT (HARYANA) - USING REMOTE SENSING & GIS
Journal Title: International Journal of Physical and Social Sciences (IJPSS) - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Drainage density defined as the total length of channels per unit area, is a fundamental property of terrain that reflects local climate, relief, geology, and other factors. Accurate measurement of is important for numerous geomorphic and hydrologic applications, yet it is a surprisingly difficult quantity to measure, particularly over large areas. Like this in this paper we calculate canal density of Hisar district and used a consistent and efficient method of Horton (1945) for generating choropleth maps of canal density. This yields a theoretically sound tool for estimating spatial variability of canal density. This paper demonstrates a feasibility of automated canal density mapping on regional scales and using LISS III satellite data in GIS environment. Such maps offer affordable means of surveying large regions for variability in spatially extended features, which themselves are difficult to sense remotely, but are expressed by the canal density.
